RE: Bug Out Vehicle of choice
Just me but I would drive a 911 Turbo given the choice before a SHTF event. I can understand driving a shed if you have no other choice or have no interest in cars, but sacrificing your normal life for a 'what if' does not fit with my own thoughts. I have not found myself any need to sacrifice a good life for me and the family in order to Prep.
If I sold my family vehicle for a beat up 4x4 or rusty saloon the misses would think I had lost the plot (she does anyway, Been looking for a Longline LSV to commute to work in for ages)
I think Prepping should be about risk assessment also. Getting your mortgage or loans paid off so that should anything happen to you then your family will be finacial sound with a roof over there head is better Prepping than for a SHTF event. You have to weigh up the relative risks based on your situation and location.
For me I treat Prepping as a hobby. Learning about plants, distilling water, explosives etc. Buying the Bug In/Bug Out kit as money allows.
